Q

some details when doing PNF

A

~No matter how much they have action the pt has, always start passively
~Need to have the pt relax to move them through passively
~make sure to assure them that you will not drop them
~Talk them though what you are doing (verbal), have them watch (visual), then have them do it
~Make sure to grab the distal part of the limb

Q

RI- Basis

A

~slow rhythmical motion acts to inhibit arousal (RAS) and achieve relaxation
~movement is thru the available range, avoiding a protective response from pt
~movement is slow and maintained, avoiding quick stretches

Q

HRAM- Description

A

~ISOMETRIC contraction in shortened range of a pattern against graded resistance the HOLD is build up
~pt is given RELAX command
~when PT feels pt relax, PT quickly movements pt to lengthened range of pattern
~applying a quick stretch, PT gives appropriate command to have pt ACTIVELY return to shortened range of pattern
~PT may assist, track, or resist during active phase

Q

HRAM- other info

A

~Lengthened- Physiological overflow- easier to create a contraction
~hoping that the neuro will learn to contract from a more lengthen position
~Hoping that the isometric buildup will help cue the nervous system that this is the muscle they are trying to contract at a more stretched position (where it is having difficulty contracting at a lengthened state - lengthened sarcomeres).
~Helpful for total knee pts

Q

HR- Description

A

~technique is performed at the point of limitation in range
~pt may actively move to (or passively) that point of limitation the PR resists ISOMETRIC contraction for the range-limiting pattern; resistance is built up to pt tolerance (maximal) and then maintained (no jt motion is allowed)
~command to RELAX is given as the resistance is changed to support the part
~when relaxation is felt, the pt is asked to actively more into the desired motion

Q

CR- Description

A

~technique is done at the point of limitation in range
~pt actively moves to that point
~PT resists the range limiting pattern such that an ISOTONIC contraction for rotary component and an ISOMETRIC contraction of the other components are achieved
~when the pt has moved thru the full range of the rotary motion, the command to RELAX is given as the resistance is changed to support the limb
~when relaxation has occurred, the pt moves to the new range, or is passively moved by PT

Q

CR- other info

A

~Add rotation
~what to do a large rotary component- we are fatiguing the 2 muscles groups that are preventing the movement
~If problem with flex and IR, push into flex then ER all the way then flex and IR at the same time

28
Q

AI- what does it stand for?

A

Alternating isometrics

29
Q

AI- Description

A

~intermediate step to RS
~pt resists an ISOMETRIC contraction of one pattern immediately followed with resistance to ISOMETIC contraction of antagonist pattern
~resistance is built up within each shift and over entire sequence

30
Q

AI- Application

A

use for balancing tone; when used for this purpose, one side of joint is emphasized, often used in trunk stabilization

31
Q

AI- other info

A

~Build stability or jt or jts; great for the trunk/ balance

~Like low grade perturbations

32
Q

RS- what does it stand for?

A

Rhythmic stabilization

33
Q

RS- Description

A

~simultaneous co-contraction (isometric) of antagonistic patterns (resisted flexion of elbow at wrist at the same time resisted extension of shoulder at extensor surface near elbow, then change) by alternating the antagonistic patterns resisted by each hand
~resistance is gradually built up within each shift and over the entire sequence

34
Q

RS- Basis

A

~co-contraction effects both sides of the joint

~maintained resistance facilitates stabilization

35
Q

RS- Application

A

when pt has limited ROM due to splinting or pain’ appropriate to develop stability of head, neck, and trunk

39
Q

SR- Basis

A

the slow rhythmical movements inhibit arousal via RAS, resistance stimulates activation

40
Q

SR- Application

A

~to teach an activity
~when pt has weakness limiting ability to initiate movement

41
Q

SR- other info

A

D1 flex, D1 ext- do one action then the opposite movement (slowly)

42
Q

SRH- what does it stand for?

A

43
Q

SRH- Description

A

~pt isotonically contracts the agonist, followed by and isometric contraction of the agonist
~pt changes direction (reversal) by repeating same sequence of contractions of the antagonist
~pattern does not relax before shifting to opposing pattern

44
Q

SRH DEC- description

A

thru decrement of range- the PT gradually decreases the amount of ROM that the pt moves thru

45
Q

SRH INC- description

A

thru increment of range- the PT gradually increases the amount of ROM that the pt moves thru

46
Q

SRH- Basis

A

aids in the transition from mobility to stability

47
Q

SRH- Application

A

to develop endurance and strength within a pattern of movement

48
Q

SRH DEC- application

A

when a pt cannot stabilize (ataxic) builds up the ability to stabilize

49
Q

SRH INC- application

A

~when a pt does not have control thru the full range of an activity
~builds up ability to move through full range with control

50
Q

SRH- other info

A

Usually done on a pt with ataxia- pt has movement, but somewhere in the range, the movement does not have the ability to do what they want it to/ there is not stability in the range

51
Q

SRH DEC- other info

A

~decrease the range of movement that the pt gets to do at first and then they will increase when they are able to do it better
~do isometrics at the end of the range where they are still stable

slowly increase as the movement becomes more stable
